How Much It Costs to Send a Celebrity Down the Red Carpet
The celebrity stylist desires to be noticed as a mix of fashion consultant and very best friend, but the job is really a lot more hustler-broker, netting a red-carpet day rate of $ 1,500 to $ 10,000 for the ugly grunt function of wrangling, bullying, and pleading with designers to spare a gown or a clutch purse so that the client (or, a lot more frequently, the film studio that is paying) does not have to acquire it. Often the stylist has to donate, too. If a movie business won’t pay for the day rate, the celebrity possibly won’t either, in which case she may well ask a stylist to dress her in return for exposure. Stylist Phillip Bloch says that some of his top-tier customers never ever pay him. “Honestly, Salma [Hayek] never paid a dollar, I don’t assume, in all the years I’ve worked for her,” says Bloch. “She and I were greatest close friends.”
Kate Moss, Diane Kruger & Anna Dello Russo Party with Prada in Paris
Kate Moss and Marianne Faithful
Couture week may well be about coo-ing more than spectacular concotions on the catwalk, but there’s constantly time for a good party. And when they come courtesy of Prada, you know you are in for a corker.
Fashionable sorts which includes Kate Moss, Diane Kruger, and Salma Hayek arrived to mark the opening of the Italian brand’s 24 h Museum in Paris. The project is the brainchild of Miuccia Prada and Italian artist Francesco Vezzoli, and is open for 24 hours only: nowadays. And that indicates a LOT of partying to squeeze in just before the museum opened the following morning.
Celebrations kicked off promptly at the historic Palais d’Iéna with a private dinner followed by a glitzy shindig, which was live-streamed across the world wide web. Nonetheless, Kate Moss was ready to let her (unexpectedly wavy) hair down. After launching her new Mango campaign in London, she arrived in the French capital wearing a lacy LBD beneath a fur jacket, paired with strappy black platform heels in true Parisian chic stylee. Inside the party, Mossy was spotted schmoozing with the likes of Marianne Faithfull and Emmanuelle Alt ahead of taking over DJ duties. Appazza, the supermodel played ‘Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You’, which got every person dancing on the tables.
The Annas (Dello Russo and Wintour) had been also there to sip on champagne, as was Carine Roitfeld, while Léa Seydoux and Diane Kruger admired the sculptures of celebrity faces that decorated the temporary museum. Have a scroll through our gallery to see who wore what…

2012 Golden Globe Awards Red Carpet Black Dresses
The safe choice for evening wear, the queen of all dresses, the Little Black Dress (shorter or longer, simpler or more intricate) was a sure bet for the 2012 edition of the Golden Globe Awards.
Not as numerous as the white-ish, pale neutrals, soft gowns we talked about earlier, the black dresses were equally gorgeous, maybe even more interesting, fashion wise, than the rest. My favorite was, of course, Meryl Streep. A fashion winner, not just a Golden Globe winner! (she took home the Golden Globe for the Best Actress Award for her interpretation in the Iron Lady – once again, Anna Wintour picks the winners for Vogue’s cover) She’s wearing Alessandra Rich, and even if it was a bed sheet or table cloth or both, all I know is that it’s totally her, it suits her, it looks amazingly comfortable and she may wear whatever she pleases, she’ll still be the great Meryl Streep! (I realize I may be all alone in my corner while the entire world is casting fashion stones at Meryl’s dress choice for last night). The story continues right after the jump (you can click here for the gallery!)
You know, there’s something odd happening now – when I did that creamy story earlier, I had good and bad. Now (maybe it’s because of the amazingly good coffee I’m drinking right this moment) I can’t seem to find any flaws in the ranks of the black dresses wearers! Salma Hayek’s black Gucci with golden geometrical embroidery on the dresses’ corset is truly flattering on Salma’s body (notice her ombre hair? If Pinault’s lady has gradient hair, it’s a trend for sure!). And that Prada dress with green upper body that has taken over Zooey Deschanel’s usually quirky baby doll-ish style? It’s amazing! I loved her transformation!
Salma Hayek In Gucci – 2012 Golden Globe Awards
Dear Salma Hayek, where was this Gucci dress when you necessary it last year?
The actress totally erased the last six months of the ‘Puss In Boots’ promo tour by searching sensational on the red carpet at the 2012 Golden Globes Awards this evening.
This is far more like it. This is the Salma I know and really like.

François-Henri Pinault to be made Grand Officer of the Legion of Honour!
Congratulations to François-Henri Pinault, chairman of luxury retail holding company, PPR, who is to be made a Grand Officer of the Legion of Honour in the French equivalent of the New Year’s Honours list. Pinault follows in the footsteps of Anna Wintour, who famously received her award last July wearing a midnight blue Chanel couture outfit which had only appeared on the runway ten seconds ahead of, (read: the previous evening) as well as designers John Galliano who received his award in 2009, and Karl Lagerfeld who was honoured in 2010.
The organization of which Pinault is chair – PPR – for those of your who need to have to brush up on your luxury retail conglomerates, is a holding company which owns a multitude of high finish designer labels such as Gucci, Bottega Veneta, Yves Saint Laurent and Balenciaga. It also has a 50% stake in British brands Alexander McQueen and Stella McCartney. The organization was established in 1963 by François-Henri Pinault’s father, also called François Pinault, just to confuse you further.
Most Painful Promo Tour Award – Salma Hayek for ‘Puss In Boots’
December 22nd, 2011
For Salma Hayek the by no means-ending promo tour for ‘Puss In Boots’ started with Gucci back in Could and ended with Gucci in November.
Throw in some other Gucci Group brands like Bottega Veneta, Alexander McQueen, YSL, Balenciaga (who is not your friend, Salma), and Stella McCartney, plus some other brands such as Antonio Berardi, Ferregamo and Elie Saab, and you have 1 of the longest and, frankly, most painful promo tours of all time.
